DMX:
No sense in whinin' 'bout it now
I mean, we knew what it was
When we became a part of it
Feel me?
(Monica:yeah)
Huh?
It's like...
Monica:
There's something on your mind
I can see right through you
I know your girl been treatin' you wrong
But she ain't no good for you
Why do you hold it inside
Boy you should let me know
I just want to make you right
I wanna be the one you can cry on
DMX:
Baby, it's like I love my wife
But we going through things and I ain't going home tonight
You got time for a *****
Or is he still with you
Wanna meet at the same spot
Or should I come and get you
A'ight, I'll be there in 10
Be in the front
I been gettin' what i need
So I'ma give you what you want
One on one
Cause you know how to talk to dog
You walk the dog and understand New York gets hard baby
CHORUS:
MONICA:
You, you ain't gotta go home tonight (DMX: Uh)
You can stay right here with me
(DMX: I ain't going nowhere, when you wake up I'm gon' be right there)
Don't you worry 'bout a thing
(DMX: I ain't worried 'bout shhh...)
You're here with me
(DMX: Look it's like I love my wife but we're going through things and I ain't going home tonight a'ight?)
MONICA:
It's kinda strange, that when you call (DMX: Hm)
She's never home, then you're there all alone and you deserve so much more baby
I can treat you better than she can
It doesn't make sense to keep on loving and keep on trusting
When in return all you get is nothing
DMX:
Damn, got me ****ed up and
I'm feelin' it more
Never had a mistress this stressed before
Uh come on ma
Like it ain't that deep
Like ain't no love there
Like I don't hate when I gotta creep
(MONICA: When I gotta creep)
And go to sleep in eachothers' arms, yeah
And I feel like this is where I belong
If loving you is right then I ain't wrong
It's the same ol' song
Wife and fam, gotta be a father and husband but I'm still a good man, baby...
CHORUS:
MONICA:
You, you ain't gotta go home tonight (DMX: Uh)
You can stay right here with me
(DMX: I ain't going nowhere, when you wake up I'm gon' be right there)
Don't you worry 'bout a thing
(DMX: I ain't worried 'bout shhh...)
You're here with me
(DMX: Look it's like I love my wife but we're going through things and I ain't going home tonight a'ight?)
MONICA:
The situation's gettin' critical
(DMX: Uh huh)
I watched so many tears fall
(DMX: Uh huh)
I know she's not what you want
So why you keep on holding on when...
I'm right here (DMX: What)
All you need to do is call(DMX: Yeah, what)
Don't be afraid cause she won't know at all
CHORUS (x2):
MONICA:
You, you ain't gotta go home tonight (DMX: Uh)
You can stay right here with me
(DMX: I ain't going nowhere, when you wake up I'm gon' be right there)
Don't you worry 'bout a thing
(DMX: I ain't worried 'bout shhh...)
You're here with me
(DMX: Look it's like I love my wife but we're going through things and I ain't going home tonight a'ight?)
MONICA:
Stay with me...
